Strange hero chapter 10
Picking up where we left off Aniesha ring glows as her suit surrounds her as the light from the crystal dyes down Alex sees his team fully morphed.
Keri says "so with this suit do my powers change" Alex said "as the red ranger you have new weapons a sword and a blaster and as before you have enhanced fighting prowess your also part of a honored history there's not been many female red rangers".
Keri replied "really why" Alex replied "I don't know anyway moving on Aniesha since I know you're about to ask as the yellow ranger one of your weapons is a bow staff that delivers an electric rendering your opponents out cold and as usual you have a blaster for long range attacks".
Aniesha drew her bow staff which was strapped to her back and it grew longer "cool so this is what you both felt when you became rangers" Tom and Keri both nodded.
Alex said "okay then now we return to our normal lives and await our call to duty" the three agents nodded and left the base von Hades said "okay guess I'll disappear till you need" me and he left.
Alex sat down and said "Henry keep us informed of any crimes in progress and if its Zeltrax call me immediately" Henry replied "of course master"
Alex left the base and stepped outside his house locked up and jumped on his bike and rode off.
Meanwhile at korpse HQ Zeltrax was repairing himself after the power outage damaged some of his parts he finished the last repair when a guard came in and said "sir the crime minister would like to see you".
Zeltrax nodded and the guard left Zeltrax headed out and a few seconds later he entered the crime minister office.
The crime minister said "I see your repaired good then it's time for you to earn your pay I want you to distract the silver ranger and von Hades while my agents steal something very important from a secure mi9 lab".
Zeltrax said "but mam what about the mi9 team as well as the other rangers" the crime minister replied "do not concern yourself with them scapula will be deployed to keep them distracted"
Zeltrax "said okay mam" and left the crime minister said "good now to make mi9 can't interfere and said odesious block all mi9 communications.
Meanwhile Alex was in class with the rest of the mi9 team Mr. flatly was teaching us science once again Alex thought back to when he learned this at polygon and sighed it was quiet when his communicator went off this time silently.
After excusing himself from class he went to a deserted corridor he was about to answer when the mi9 team came round the corner having being called by frank.
The five of us entered the spybase where frank said "welcome" I called you all even you Alex there's a problem Alex "said I know frank Henry gave the run down Zeltrax is causing destruction downtown while four different banks are being robbed at the same time".
Frank said "okay you know already Alex said "Zeltrax is mine we have a score to settle ill do it alone Alex said Henry teleport me and he vanished frank was a little shocked but said "now team I know you're not going to like this but your gonna have to split up to cover the four banks.
Communication gone down and mi9 can't seem to mobilize Dan said "so it's up the four of us to take out the criminals" frank says "yes Dan but I'll be coming with you Aniesha tom Keri you three are gonna be on your own"
Keri said "we're rangers and agents we can handle it frank nodded and the five of them left leaving the school before separating to deal with the banks.
Meanwhile Alex appeared in his base and said "Henry my bike" Henry said master" and opened the passage when von Hades came out of the shadows.
He said "so he is attacking" Alex nodded and entered the garage von Hades stared in shock before saying "how many secrets does this house contain ".
Alex said "more than you can possibly imagine speaking off do you have a driver's license" von Hades replied "I did but it got destroyed after I was arrested for drunk driving".
"Don't worry easy fix as you know I wiped your criminal history well except for stealing sweets and Henry can do just about hack just all computers are lame compared to Henry"
"So I would like to give you this" Alex handed over a drivers license von Hades took it Alex said all "that's left now choose what your vehicle.
Alex jumped on his bike and morphed before riding off von Hades pocketed his license before taking another bike and following Alex.
Meanwhile Zeltrax was blasting people who were running in sheer terror "come on silver ranger where are you" he was cut short when a laser blast hit him he blocked the strike and tossed it aside Alex and von Hades stepped forward.
Zeltrax laughed hello "ranger and I see you bought the failure von Hades with you too" von Hades said "silence" Zeltrax laughed I don't take orders from you look how pathetic you are von Hades siding with a power ranger".
He looked at Alex "and you your father would be ashamed of you working with his murderer "Alex drew his blaster "shut up you have no right to talk of my father and once finished we will recycle you for spare parts if you're lucky".
Zeltrax laughed before he spoke "you won't defeat me you are nothing" he threw out his hand and a blast of electricity shot towards Alex who turned his blasters into swords and rolled von Hades switched on his suit and did the same"
Zeltrax roared and charged at us we started to fight.
Meanwhile Aniesha arrived at the bank and saw the alarm going off she ducked round a corner and looked at her ring before saying "second ranger morph let's do this she drew her bow staff and entered the bank.
Aniesha walked forward slowly bow staff in hand when she heard something and rolled seeing a throwing star stuck in the wall as 30 scapulas appeared surrounding her.
One of them said "so there's a yellow ranger now should be fun" they charged at her Aniesha stood got into a fighting position as the assassins pounced on her.
Elsewhere Dan and frank had arrived at their bank and were also waylaid by scapula Dan and frank defeated them but it's like they were endless Dan punched one of them when a scapula agent got a luck kick to frank.
Who fell to the floor holding his leg he said "Dan you need to run help the others" Dan turned on frank "there is no way I'm leaving you here he stood his ground.
The scapula guards closed in around them one of them laughed and said you should of listened to him fool because now you will die they charged at Dan who blocked and tossed the soldier over his shoulders.
He did it twice more when a scapula guards struck him from behind and he fell to the floor the guard grabbed him by the throat and said "it's over child" frank said "leave him but one of the guards hit frank knocking him unconscious.
The guard started squeezing at Dan's throat.
Meanwhile Alex and von Hades were fighting Zeltrax who laughed as he blocked both a strike from Von Hades and Alex and threw us back Alex recovered and said "von Hades get back" and pressed a bracelet on his other wrist and said "silver baterlizer" his bike rode forward hitting Alex who was engulfed in light.
Von Hades said "oh you're gonna get it now cyborg" Zeltrax laughed "so this is the famous baterlizer I remember when your father used it on me you think it would work again.
Alex smirked "yes I do" and fired the Gatling guns the blasts slammed into Zeltrax who was able to block some of the shots but the rest slammed into him Zeltrax fell to his knees as the shots damaged his cybernetics".
Alex powered out of his baterlizer and holding his blade he approached Zeltrax and said "any final words before I return you to your cell" Zeltrax laughed you fool it doesn't matter what happens to me the other rangers and the mi9 agents will die".
Alex went to strike when Zeltrax said "got you" and sprayed smoke when it cleared he was gone Alex turned and said "gone but doesn't matter we'll get him later but the others need help"
Von Hades Said "I'll go check on the other rangers you go help frank". Alex nodded as he watched von Hades ride off Alex jumped on his cycle and rode off.
Meanwhile Aniesha had defeated all the scapula assassins in one of the four banks she restrained the guards she made sure there was none left when her ring glowed Alex voice said "Aniesha your needed leave the guards go help tom von Hades has got Keri" Aniesha replied "on it"
Alex rode as fast as he could when Henry voice spoke through his communicator "master something going on I'm detecting a large spike of power a morpher is being created close to you".
Alex replied "thank you Henry I'm on it" Alex rode faster inside the bank Dan tried to break free but he couldn't breathe when suddenly a bright light hit the guard who was forced to relinquish his hold on Dan who dropped to his knees as the light diminished dropping a ring at his feet.
Dan looked at the ring and smiled he slid the ring on his finger and said destiny force activation black there was an explosion surge outside Alex who had just arrived saw it and said "well done kid but you need the help of a pro".
Inside Dan was fighting utilizing his new ranger powers one of the assassins said "doesn't matter if you're a ranger there is still more of us and only one of you".
Actually that's not quite true there two of us as Alex stepped into the building some of the guards spun round in shock "you how what happened to Zeltrax" Alex said "well let's just say he had some electrical problems so I've got more time to help my friend here take out you right black ranger".
Dan in his suit said "yh silver" Alex drew his blasters and we started fighting most were knocked out until Alex and Dan were stood back to back surrounded from all sides Alex said "so how's it feel" Dan said "excellent guess I was wrong about you" Alex replied "no problem I understand".
Dan said "so what can I do" Alex replied "well you have enhanced fighting prowess for civilian powers as for weapons blasters and a double bladed staff" Dan was about to reply when one of the assassin spoke impatiently "hey stop talking we want to kill you now and your ruining the moment".
They charged at us Alex and Dan combined there powers and defeated all but one of the scapula agents who Dan went to punch him out when he laughed and said "fools you really think we were here to rob the bank were assassins what do we care about money at that he ran off Dan went to give chase.
But Alex said "let him go we help frank first Alex powered down and approached the still injured frank "you okay" frank said I'm fine but how did you know about this" Alex replied "Zeltrax come on let's get frank out of here but one thing there' something you're not going to like follow"
Both me and Dan supported frank and got him into the back of the mi9 van Dan said "I don't have a driver's license Alex replied "I'll drive the van but can you take my bike back for me don't wreck it"
Dan grinned and said "who do you think I am and sat on my bike and rode away" Alex got in the van and revved it and drove the van home.
When Alex got home both him and Dan who was unmorphed at this point got frank inside and laid him down on the bed we entered the secret base finding the rest of the team waiting for us tom said "what took you so long".
Alex said "had to drive the van slow compared to my bike" Keri spoke next "is frank okay Henry said "worry not agent summers I detected no breakage he'll be okay" now Dan spoke "we first need to" he was cut off as von Hades appeared in the room.
He rounded on Alex "what the hell is he doing here" tom replied "Dan its okay he saved me when the scapula guards at the bank were too much" Dan said "you all know he's assassin and he works for korpse".
Von Hades replied "I think you will find that I used to work for korps and if you would listen I work for Alex now" Dan said "okay but just know that I will be watching you" von Hades replied "I'm okay with that do what you need to".
Henry grabbed their attention "excuse me if you are done arguing I have discovered the reason behind the bank raids as well as Zeltrax's rampage and also why mi9 couldn't mobilize I have detected a weak hack coming from korpse HQ but also that at the same time as the bank raids there was a raid on an mi9 lab and several boxes of equipment were stolen".
Alex said "I expected this was a set up because Zeltrax isn't the destruction type and it was scapula doing the bank raids" "so what could they of gotten hold off" tom enquired Keri replied "maybe frank would know" another voice entered the room "maybe frank would know what",
Frank entered the base limping Alex said "Henry tell him what you just told us Henry told frank the truth.
Frank was thinking about what he heard when the silence was broken by Keri "so frank what was going on in that lab what was stolen" frank looked round for a moment then said "I'm afraid that information is classified agents" Dan replied "really frank your doing this now whatever was in that lab is now in the hands of the crime minister and you're doing your classified".
Frank said "I'm sorry I can't" he left the base everyone looked at Alex expectantly Alex said "Henry could you" Henry replied "master it will take a few hours I will call you when it's done tom nodded and left followed by Keri and Aniesha von Hades stepped into the shadows leaving Alex and Dan the only two left in the room.
Alex said "aren't you going to join your team" Dan replied "in a minute but first I need to know there is no hard feeling between us the way I treated you" Alex said "don't worry mate I understand the real reason behind your actions but I won't say anything" Dan replied "that's appreciated" he left the base and followed his team out of Alex's house with the others.
Alex left the base and locked the passage and went into his living room and stopped in front of a portrait of his father and pressed a button the picture slid aside revealing a ring Alex picked it up when Henry said "master no that morpher you could never get it to work right the omega morpher is dangerous".
Alex replied "I know don't worry I'm not going to use it I wanted to make sure it was contained" he put the ring back in the vault that was behind the picture and closed the door before going to lie down on his bed and sleep.
Meanwhile Zeltrax stumbled into the crime minister office she looked up "you may have failed to eradicate that pest the silver ranger but your distraction as well as scapulas was perfect my agents got into the mi9 lab without problems".
Zeltrax stepped round the desk and said "mam. What was so important" the crime minister opened the box and said "this is a weapon that will win korpse mi9 called it the mystery gem".
"I don't know what it does all I know is there is a strong aura of power surrounding and if we can harness it we can use it to heal the master" she got up and picked up the box and left the room.
Zeltrax said "or I could use it to put an end to my ranger problem". He left the room as well.
